Ingredients
- Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Heavy cream
- Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- Fresh minced garlic
- Red pepper flakes
- Black pepper
- Chicken broth
- Olive oil
- Butter
Instructions
- Start by seasoning your chicken fillets with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken fillets and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of butter and the minced garlic. Sauté for about a minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn it!
- Pour in the chicken broth and scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the skillet. Bring it to a simmer.
- Reduce the heat to low and add the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Gradually mix in the grated Parmesan cheese, allowing it to melt into the sauce.
- Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if needed.
- Return the chicken fillets to the skillet, coating them generously in the creamy sauce. Let them simmer for a few minutes to meld the flavors.
- Once everything is heated through, serve the chicken fillet in the spicy creamy garlic Parmesan sauce over pasta, rice, or with a side of steamed vegetables.
